This episode was quite good regarding how Eru and Houtarou went that far, not from a "mystery/odd case" curiosity challenge perspective, but indeed with their interactions.
Frankly, Eru's "new" reactions are evidence how she narrowed Houtarou's habits, so she has appropriate expectations from what he can deduce whatsoever.

It was particularly funny how Eru "countered" Houtarou left and right with such faces, quite unexpected from her (I was wondering if she wasn't influenced by Mayaka there), to which Houtarou tried to keep his best to find something fancy, despite he was basically spot on. The fun fact is that his theory wasn't even far fetched and fits well with the few "habits" japanese have for few things, like school announcements etc.

I also appreciated that this episode had additional exposure, with the ending completely skipped. Instead, using Air on G string was an excellent idea, concluding Eru and Houtarou's interactions with a "natural" mood, sort of.
